APR .3 195 <br />Roar 0 411 <br />area makes a good deal of sense. He also noted that both traffic <br />and drainage are very serious problems in the area and felt if <br />the Commission does grant the zoning requested, they should check <br />the site plan very carefully and make sure the property is <br />developed properly. <br />Barbara Colgrove, resident of the corner of 7th Avenue and <br />8th Place, complained of severe drainage problems and stated that <br />just to get a small swale ditch, she had to fight with the county <br />for five years. <br />Mr. Sullivan stated that they would have no objection to <br />putting a swale along their property on the south side of 8th <br />Place. He emphasized that they did not create the water problem, <br />but they are willing to help solve it, but they can't do anything <br />unless they have the ability to make a reasonable sale. He felt <br />all the things discussed could be handled in a site plan. <br />Chairman Lyons noted that it is unfortunate that there were <br />many subdivisions put in in the early days where they did not <br />take drainage problems into consideration, and we now have <br />inherited these problems. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Wodtke, the Board unanimously closed <br />the public hearing. <br />Discussion again arose in regard to tracking the site plan <br />with the rezoning, and Commissioner Wodtke stated that while he <br />agreed mitigation of the road problems is important, he hoped it <br />would be possible to make a reasonable analysis of any possible <br />impact without requiring a full blown detailed site plan. <br />Director Keating stated what staff would be looking at would <br />be location of buildings on the site, access, parking etc.; they <br />would not need a detailed engineering analysis. He felt a month <br />would be adequate for Mr. Sullivan to present such a conceptual <br />plan and for staff to review it. <br />46 <br />
